[Subjective evaluation of adaptation to life in patients after radical neck dissection].
Neoplastic disease is the reason for limitation in life activity and functioning. The aim of study was assessment of adaptation to life after radical neck dissection. 87 subjects were followed up: 55 patients (group A) after radical neck dissection and 32 operated on for non-neoplastic ORL diseases. Patients from group A almost in all estimated indices showed statistical significant differences in comparison with group B. Only some differences were noted between patients examined in the period shorter and longer than one year after operation. There were no differences between patients after total laryngectomy and these who were cured in other procedures.
